At bedtime, 8 yo and 11 yo often have something 8 yo has named "games night," consisting mostly of various forms of fighting. Their favorite lately is a variant of sumo where 11 yo wears a blindfold and keeps his hands behind his back. To 8 yo's delight, they're evenly matched.
Should kids be going to sleep at bedtime instead of fighting? Probably. But for some reason it only seems special at bedtime. "Games night" fights in the middle of the day would be ... quotidian.
thats when the magic happens
I don't know what it is about small boys. My son also refused to go to bed without a pre-sleep wrestling match. Same every night: first read a book together, then wrestling, then happily off to bed. He's 18 now, so thankfully that particular tradition has ended :)
Our kids had a number of games like that - one of the joys of life. Ours included “man in the middle” and “hotdog”.
Nothing better than going to bed with a smile on their face. That physical contact must be doing something. This is in my bookshelf waiting to be read, maybe some useful info can be found therehttps://books.google.com.au/books/about/Touch.html?id=S8QcBAAAQBAJ&redir_esc=y …
Did this too! Had to be at nighttime and in the hallway until our parents heard us! I still have some of my infamous defence moves. Oh how I was invincible back then!
Haha! My brother and I used to do this around that same age, until we woke up our parents enough times to know that the consequences were not worth the potential fun.
We did this growing up and they are some of my fondest memories - being actively encouraged to rumpus before bedtime. "Cliff Bats" was my favourite game and I now play it with my kids...
